hood or womanhood, and then with a GER
TIN solemnity, to introduce the most sacred
name
So much for the supposed necessity Of
bringing up children in the belief in a per-
sonal Deity. There are few other points Oh
which | wish to touch briefly before | fin
ish my remarks. One point is that we
need substitute for prayer, and | would
offer the following suggestions. Let me
say that | am quite unbending in the de-
mand that no parent should teach his child
what he does not himself believe, and
should not encourage practices in child in
regard to which he himself is not willing
to set the example. If the parent prays,
then let the child pray, if the parent him
self does not pray. neither should the child
pray.
But we need substitute for prayer.
Now there is one source of prayer. let me
say, that | am not at all inclined to under
estimate. | think we Liberals have made
great mistake heretofore in simply brush
ing away the practices of the church with
out wishing to allow the good that resides,
or has resided in these practices, and that
we have lost. 1t is important that we
should recognize the service and the bene-
fits which flow from the old practices, ID
order that we may get the same benefits
perhaps in another way

VOL. III.
THE OLD SPINNING WHEEL.

Through the intricate maze of its pullevs and
wheels.
And its oallen frame vision steals
Of the long gone years, of the hands that are
still,
And the lm-shadcd house at the foot of the hill
Where the child ,round-cheeked and wond ring
eyed,
watching the old wheel buzz at the ingleside
With sound like a far-off muffied drum,
In its "ctickety, Whir-r, achfr.r hum
Years come and go; on the porch it stands;
And the pins fly round meath a fair girls
hands,
She watches the sunsets fading rays,
With far-off girlish, fancifu gaze,
'fill the rose steals into her dimpled check,
And the garrulous spinning wheel seems to
speak
Her foolish thoughts TO christendom
with It's cttckety 'ChifT, tChir-f, hum
Still time speeds on; tits winters night
The hearth fire is circed with faces bright
There is laughter and jest and the storm, in
rain,
Beats on the door and the frosted pane,
And the wheels spins round with "a measured
rhyme,
Like quaint refrain of the old, glad time,
Like passage of sorrowful day to come,
In its 'ciickety, tVhir-r, l0hiT-r, huHa''
Its voice oft brought the sick child rest.
And lightened many weary breast:
Beneath its song the whispered word
And kiss of lovers passed unheard,
lfit would speak, that strange old wheel,
What wonderful secrets it could reveal,
What romance is hid in the weary sum
OF its ''ciickety, aoi,ir-1 achif-r-hu7ar
1t had its influence and its share
In every joy and every care;
Fast, fast it flew, yet with swifter rate,
Spun round and round the wheel of fate
They fashioned out of its woven thread
The dress of the bride and the sheet for the
dead,
And the wheel went round, though the heart
grew numb,
With IL "ciickety, lchir-T, achir-r hum
All are vanishing and all are STILL
And the spinning wheel by the Gathering mill
Has been left behind with the primitive days
OF homelier toiland more honest ways;
Yet oft through the night and out of the gloom
And the gathering dust of the lumberroom
Its song, like ghosts voice seems to come.
With "ciickety, tohir'-r eehir-. hum

a ban GEROUs EXPERIMENT.

Josiah Aliens wife, in her latest book,
Sweet Cicely" has some very shrewd
things to say upon various subjects. Con-
corning the experiment" of giving the
ballot to women who desire it in order to
protect their homes, Josiah remarks:
at would be a dangerous experiment.
Cicely. 1t seems to me suthin' unwo-
manly, suthin' again mater. It's turnin'
the laws of mater right round. It's perilous
to the domestic mater Of wimmin.
To which his wife replies:
"Don't you remember, Josiah Allen,
how you worried about them hens to the
fair? They were SO handsome and such
good layers that | really wanted the in
flooence of them hens to spread abroad.
But you worried aw full You was afraid
that carrying the hens into the turmoil of
public life would have tendency to keep
'em from wantin' to make nests and hatch
chickens. But it didn't. Good land, one
of 'em made nest right there in the coop
at the fair, with crowd shoughtin round
'em and laid two eggs. You can't break
off natur's laws-they are laid too deep and
strong for any hammer we can get hold of
to touch em. All the nations and empires
of the world can't move 'em round a
notch
"a true woman's deepest love and desire
are for her home and her loved ones and
planted right in by the side of these two
lovers of her'n is deathless instinct and
desire to protect and save from danger.
Good land. never heard an old hen called
out OF her spear or unhenly because she
would fly out at a hawk and cackle loud
and cluck and Try to lead her chickens off
into safety. And while the rooster is
steppin' high and struttin' round, and
lookin' injured, it is the old hen that saves
the chickens nine times out of ten.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Equal parts of ammonia and turpentine
will take paint out of clothing, no matter
how dry and hard it may be. Saturate the
spot two or three times, then wash out in
soapsuds.
To polish glass and remove slight
scratches rub the surface gently, first with
clean pad of fine cotton WOOL and after
ward with a similar pad covered with cot
ton velvet which has been charged with
fine rouge The surface will, under this
treatment, acquire polish of great bril-
liancy, quito free from the presence of any
scratches.
For burns apply white of egg and sweet
oil, equal parts, beaten together. You
may know the fire is out when the burned
flesh turns red and quits running water.
When the fire is ont seorch linen rag,
grease it with mutton tallow, and bind it
on to heal the burn.
In purchasing furs sure test of what
dealers call prime fur is the length and
density of the down next the skin. This
can be readily determined by blowing a
brisk current of air from the mouth
against the set of fur" If the fiber opens
readily, exposing the skin to view, reject
the article; but If the down is so dense
that the breath cannot penetrate it, or, at
most, shows but small portion of the
skin, the article may be accepted.
Sitting the flour and baking powder To-
gether, as most recipes prescribe, is great
mistake Baking powder should never be
added until everything else is in the dish
and the mass thoroughly beaten. The
reason. will be appreciated by every
thoughtful person. The moment the milk
or other liquid comes III contact with the
powder effervescence begins, and by thu
time the dough is ready for the oven it hal
| entirely ceased and the mass is likely to b.
as dull, stale, and profitless" as glas'
Of second hand soda-water. Ii all the othe
| ingredients are well beaten, the powde
| added at the last moment, and the cak'
put into the oven as hurriedly as possible
the process of efferyescence will be assist
cd by the heat and the dough will rise in
light, spongy mass. This is the secret o
/ the extra-fine cake and biscuit that man,
n-professional housekeepers boast of.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT METEORS.

l. The luminous meteor tracks are in the
upper part of the earth's atmosphere.
Few, if any, appear at height greater
than 100 miles, and few are seen below a
height Of 80 miles from the earth surface,
except in rare cases, where stones and iron
fall to the ground All these meteor tracks
are caused by bodies, which come into the
air from without.
@ The yeocties of the meteors in the
air are comparable with that of the earth
in its orbit about the sun. 1t is not easy
to determine the exact values of those We
locities, yet they may be roughly stated as
from 80 to $50 times the velocity of sound
i'm the air or of cannon ball.
3. 1t is "a necessary consequence OF these
yelocities that the meteors move about the
sun and not about the earth as the con-
trolling body
A. There are four comets related to four
periodic star-showers that come on the dates
April Goth, August 10th, November 14th
and November 9th. The meteoroids which
have given us any one of these star-showers
constitute a group, each individual of
which moves in path which is like that
of the corresponding comet. The bodies
are. however, now too far from one another
to influence appreciably each others mo-
tions.
). The ordinary shooting stars in their
appearance and phenomena do not differ
essentially from the individuals in star
showers.
! G. The metcorites of different falls differ
from one another in their chemical comps-
sition. in their mineral forms and in their
tenacity. Yet through all these differences
they have peculiar common properties
which distinguish them entirely from all
terrestrial rocks.
7 The most delicate researches nave
failed t, detect any trace Of organic Lille III
meteoltcs.
These propositions have practically UNI
versal acceptance among scientific men.

POOLS OF SOLOMON.

the wood that brinseth forth trees.-Eeci.
ii. G.
Fifteen miles to the north from Hebron.
the valley of Urtas crosses the road at
right angles, and to the right ef the high
way are the celebrated pools of solomon.
Time, that memorable destroyer of human
works, has etliaced every trace Of his won
derful genius save the pools that bear
his name. Both history and tradition
point with nnmistakable accuracy to the
imperial founder of these great fountains
These pools consist of three immense
reservoirs, situated in straight line one
below the other, and SO constructed that the
bottom of the first is higher than the top
of the second, and the second than that OF
the third. They are in part excavated in
tho rocky bed of the valley, and in part
built of square hewn stones covered with
cement, and are entered by stone steps ex-
cavated in the rock. Measuring $50 feet
in length. 236 in breadth, and 25 in depth,
the upper pool is the smallest of the three.
A hundred and sixty feet to the east is thu
middle pool, which is 4a3 long. 80 feet
deep, and varies from 100 to 250 wide. Two
hundred and forty-eight feet further
east is the lower and largest reservoir. be-
ing $50 feet in length, from l4s to 207 in
width, and 80 feet in depth, and, when
full, capable of floating one of our largest
men-of-war. Forty rods to the northwest,
in an open field, are the perennial sources
of these great fountains The genius Of
the architect that conceived such a compli-
Gated work, and the public spirit Of the
King who supplied the means for its ex-
ecution are worthy of admiration From
Dan to Beershe5a Beside these fountains
were the gardens and orchards, in which
were planted trees Of all kinds of fruits,
and which Solomon was wont to go cut in
state to see, accompanied by his retinue of
gold-powdered servants. r.

HONOR FoR OLD AGE

Old age is beginning to be honored agaii

delighted to be permitted to pay just and
graceful honors to the one whom the years
have crowned with their largest gifts. In
truth, there is more in the simple fact of
living than boys and girls can have any

The life must have been well spent to
extend beyond four score, and that is an
abiding satisfaction to the individual. Ii

dress reform movement than those of
American and European girls. First of
all no corset is worn. The long silk sash
supplies the place of steel and whalebone.
This sash is wrapped round and round the
waist loosely, aud the ends hang down be-
hind. There i6 no large, elaborate bow
pinned against the back, like those seen in
the representations of the 4dikado' ON our
stage. Some Of the ultra fashionable girls
of Toxic, however, have adopted a method
of making their waists look smaller, ae-
cording to the European modes, but no
corset is used-simply belt buckled
around The waist. The ladies are fond Of
picking the strings of the banjo, and are
up to the times in a fashion which has
been greatly in vogue among American
girls. Japanese girls attire themselves in
pretty much the same underwear as Amer
lean women, but their stockings are built
more on the order Of a mitten for the hand,
there being a separate receptacle for the
big toe. & very curious fact the reporter
CLEANED from the interpreter was this: The
japanese think that all Europeans have
very old types of faces.-Bdgttmore Neaos.

APoLIs TEAM-sPECTAToRS LEAVE BEFORE THE END
OF THE GAME-GAMES YESTERDAY IN OTHER CITIES
The Washingtons placed another defeat to their
credit yesterday. and in doing It gave wretched
exhibition OF ball playing. They not only played
an indifferent fielding game but were lamentaby
weak at the bat. The game resulted In a score OF
10 to l. in favor OF Indianapolis. Many OF the spec
taforS did not walt to the result but left the
grounds before the game was concluded and those
who remained jeered at the futile and half-hearted
efforts of the statesmen to play ball. This sort of
Dan playing should be stopped. The public which
supports the game here has q night TO OCCASION

that the management, which pays the men liberal
salaries double and triple what they could get In
any other business, has a right to the best work

ness such halfheaTted services for good pay would
result In instant dismissal. The dissatisfaction
With the home team does not arise so much from
tne defeaIS administered to them from the APP
parent Willingness TO accept these defeats without
struggle No one yesterday seemed surprised
that the Hoosiers should win, but general sur
prise was expressed that the Nationals should
have won seven games on their recent trip. The
